PHYSIOTHERAPY OF THE CAVALIER
Horseman for more than 20 years and physiotherapist passionate about movement, posture and performance. I found that there were no specialists able to take charge of the rider as a full athlete.
In the equestrian environment, the rider is often the forgotten link. However, its physical condition conditions the comfort, balance and performance of the horse.
Taking care of the rider is to optimize the duo.
That's why I chose to devote myself fully to the physiotherapy of the rider in order accompany each practitioner to a functional, stable and confident body, for a more harmonious and efficient riding.
In parallel, I continue training in equine physiotherapy, in order to offer a complete and comprehensive management of the cavalier-cheval duo.
My goal: to help you move better, climb better, and communicate better with your horse.

The objective: a gradual, secure and sustainable return to the saddle.
Postural adjustment
Each rider is unique: j based on a given problem. How? By improving symmetry, stability and synchronicity of aids, to reduce compensations and thus promote connection with your horse.
The objective: to make every gesture more precise and effective, while reducing the risk of injury to you and your horse.
